It's in our human nature to want to be in close relationship with others and some of our closest lifelong relationships are with family. No one loves like family and no one hurts like family. What happens when our family doesn't understand or outright resists God's plan for our lives? God is our defender in the midst of family strife, our lesson this week in "Meekness with Family".

Meekness in Testing

September 12, 2021 • Matthew 5:5, Hebrews 12:1–4

It's the other side of the Red Sea and Moses is a national hero. God has rescued Israel from the pursuing Egyptian army. The song of Moses is on everyone's lips. But God allows a test three short days later and memories of the victory wane as the thirsty people grumble. This week's message "Meekness in Testing" - how meekness responds when there is a divine test cleverly disguised as a national emergency.

Meekness in Need

September 19, 2021 • Matthew 5:5, Deuteronomy 8:2–6, Philippians 2:5–9, Philippians 4:11–13, Exodus 16

Nothing makes us feel more vulnerable than having a significant need that is a "must have" for us to continue forward. During these moments our faith is forged in the fire of our hunger and thirst for God's provision and God demonstrates His covenant love for us. Learn how meekness hungers for the provision of God this week in "Meekness in Need".

Meekness in Perplexity

September 5, 2021 • Matthew 5:5, Exodus 4, 1 Peter 5:6–7

Moses is on his way toward his calling as a deliverer. The Lord uses Moses' staff, which represents the successes and failures of the past, to convince the Israelites of his calling. Soon he will use it as a miracle-working instrument to convince the Egyptians to free the Hebrew slaves. Even with a divine calling and an anointed staff, he would experience set backs that look like (and feel like) failure. But doesn't being yoked together with the Lord in our kingdom calling guarantee success? Yes, as long as we measure success in the Lord's way and in the Lord's time. What does meekness look like when our forward progress is stalled or worse we feel like we're going backward? Join us for Meekness in Perplexity.
